DEFECT #1 - ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE


Posted on: 1990-10-01

Consequence

Corrective Action
Assure proper assembly and torque on 8c8580 bolt, and proper installation of 7w9526 torsion spring.

Notes
System: diesel engines;6 cylinders, 6.6 liter turbo charged engines generating 165 to 290 horsepower.
